RE: [WISPA] Vonage and Fax
I have a couple of Lingo boxes (unlimited free calls to N. America, Europe, AustralAsia) and ported my numbers to it several years ago. At $20 a month and FAX works perfectly through it, it's hard to beat. I have both RoadRunner and AT&T DSL with my Nortel router using the DSL only as a backup route. It's not been necessary yet. I'm installing my ASTERISK with those on two FXO ports and SKYPE on a third through an old WIN laptop and external $25 box. Geezey I thank the CarterPhone ruling. What am I missing? . . . j o n a t h a n -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Brad Belton Sent: Wednesday, November 08, 2006 12:16 PM To: 'WISPA General List' Subject: RE: [WISPA] Vonage and Fax Hmmm...guess I'd better keep it a secret then...

My understanding is that Level3 only offers carrier origination and termination; not the full suite of services required to provide retail voice.

Re: [WISPA] Vonage and Fax
We are using an Asterisk solution over canopy and faxing is hit and miss. On some machines it works fine. Adjusting the baud rate on the machines makes a big difference on some. Some it does not. I have one client faxing 100% and another, one hop in closer and they are maybe 25% and using the same exact machine. Go figure.

RE: [WISPA] Vonage and Fax
Nope, been largely very happy with my Vonage service. Telling SBC to take a hike ranks right up there with the likes of buying and selling a boat...two happiest days of a person's life. Construction sites many times have no option other than wireless data and Vonage fax lines. They make do with what they have and make the best of it. When we are approached by clients in properties with POTS available we'll recommend they keep one POTS line for their fax. No sense in trying to create a problem and a stripped down POTS line comes in less than $30 a month after fees/taxes.

Brian Rohrbacher wrote: Will a vonage # and service work with a fax machine? I wouldn't count on it. The service needs to have T.38 compatibility. I believe that BroadVoice offers that. but, you could get a separate fax service which forwards fax to your email. I think that would be a better solution. Like you, I do stuff on the cheap. I've learned that it's not always the best route. Don't disregard these folks' suggestions. I'm sure many of them started with the cheap stuff and learned the hard way; now, they're offering you this advice for free. good luck, bw -- WISPA Wireless List: wireless@wispa.org Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://lists.wispa.org/mailman/listinfo/wireless Archives: http://lists.wispa.org/pipermail/wireless/
